Smarthaul International solves information overload problem facing
haulage companies and hauliers throughout the United Kingdom
19 February 2007 –
London, UK – Smarthaul International Ltd has recently begun the process of providing
a solution to the multitude of compliance and information requirements for the haulage
industry and hauliers in the United Kingdom. The aim of the company is to provide,
in an easy to use form and in one place, all of the governmental and industry publications
that are needed by the Haulage industry in the UK
International business empowerment
company Mpower1 International, recently acquired the assets of Smarthaul Ltd and
has combined these with personnel resources, infrastructure and finance as part
of newly formed Smarthaul International Ltd.
There are two aspects to the Smarthaul
International proposition. First, Smarthaul International provides an information
portal offering a “one stop shop” for hauliers to locate specialized suppliers,
eateries, industry news, discounts/special offers and a discussion forum. Secondly,
Smarthaul International provides a single point of access to all the rules, regulations
and forms that hauliers require regardless of their load, destination or location.
Smarthaul International is the first and only single source for totally up-to-date
and complete information relating to the haulage industry. Using unique software
and a user-friendly internet based (web) platform, Smarthaul subscribers can access
and download all the paperwork they are expected to hold for customers, drivers
and the regulatory bodies at any time as well as receive automatic updates on all
legislation as it comes out.
Smarthaul harnesses, under license, the power in a
groundbreaking technology called Coview. Coview, from the company Connect 360 International,
provides a way for originators and publishers of documents to distribute and control
electronic information and files and make them available to a large number of people
straight to their desk, palmtop, PDA or laptops, in both office and internet café
environments. Unlike traditional forms of distribution, Coview provides content
owners with ‘lifetime control’ of business documents. Using unique rules-based technology,
documents can be given a lifespan to ensure that all information available is accurate
and current.
Adrian Elmer, who originally conceived Smarthaul, has been in the haulage
business as a driver, owner-operator and a manager. He knows the business inside
out and especially the problems facing operators in the 21st century. ”In creating
Smarthaul we were determined not only to keep hauliers and haulage companies legal
but to make sure that they benefit from the latest industry news and have access
to the best prices for everything from tires to insurance and to help increase their
revenues,” explains Adrian. “This is now being achieved through Smarthaul International
and we are continuing to add value and benefits all the time. Smarthaul’s website,
www.smarthaul.com, is a 21st century solution to a 21st century problem faced by
every haulier and haulage company in the country.”
“The Smarthaul concept provides
an exceptional opportunity across the haulage industry and, from the research Mpower1
performed, clearly meets a growing market need”, explains Ian Leeper, Director of
Mpower1 International. “However, to reach its true potential there was a very real
and urgent need to add significant infrastructure, an experienced management team
and strong focus, as well as additional funding. By acquiring the assets of Smarthaul
Ltd and combining them with solutions to each of these requirements, within Smarthaul
International Ltd, we now expect Smarthaul International to quickly become the industry
standard for compliance information and the first port of call for hauliers both
throughout the UK and further afield.”
